There's a lathered sorrel stallion running through the Joshua trees and a young man in the saddle with his coat tails in the breeze. He's got a six gun on his right hip and a rifle at his knees and he's dealing in a game that he can't win.
I have people talking about, "Boy, I hate to go to work." I love to go to work!
I can't imagine not having a reason to get out of bed at night.
I just can't imagine not having something to do.
The word 'retirement' is not in my vocabulary right now.
If I can't take Jesus Christ with me, I don't want to go.
I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ...
You marry somebody you love, that you feel like you want to spend the rest of your life with, that you're excited to wake up with every morning if you enjoy spending the day with. Right now... my wife is my best friend, by far my best friend.
I don't know where the time went. I sure have enjoyed it.
I don't want to go anywhere where Jesus can't go.
I don't want to be without God's blessings. If it's inconvenient, then it's just inconvenient. If somebody don't like it, then somebody just don't like it. That is part of me. That's who I am.
He may look dumb, but that's just a disguise.
I couldn't care less about politically correct.
My next project will be a Christian album, another one. I wrote the songs for the ones you're referring to, but I want to do some of my old gospel favorites. That's what my next album's going to be.
